For this six-month period, the VA OIG identified nearly $3.3 billion in monetary impact for a return on investment of $28 for every dollar spent on oversight.

The related work resulted in 598 administrative sanctions and corrective actions.The Office of Audits and Evaluations (OAE) produced 47 work products, including one VA management advisory memoranda on VA's progress related to reducing overdose deaths. Also included were 16 oversight reports and 30 preaward and postaward contract audits and reviews to help VA obtain fair and reasonable pricing on products and services. OAE reports for the six-month period resulted in 146 recommendations for VA improvements.The Office of Healthcare Inspections (OHI) continued to provide the oversight necessary to assess VHA's delivery of high-quality care and leaders' efforts to build and uphold a culture that prioritizes patient safety. Of the 36 oversight products OHI published in the last six months, 10 were for-cause reports responsive to OIG hotline complaints. In addition to seven national reviews, OHI released 14 healthcare facility inspections, three care-in-the-community inspections, one mental health inspection, and one vet center inspection.The Office of Special Reviews (OSR) conducted 21 investigative interviews and issued one report addressing VA's lapses in oversight of a grantee providing transitional housing services to veterans at risk for homelessness.

In this episode of Moving Into the Future, host Jack Macejka, Vice President of National Accounts at The Advance Group, sits down with Jason Aster, Managing Director at KBA Lease Services, to pull back the curtain on one of commercial real estate’s most misunderstood services: lease auditing. They discuss how tenants—many unknowingly—overpay millions over the life of their leases, and how KBA’s tech-forward approach is reshaping the way large portfolios identify, correct, and prevent billing errors. From capital expenditures to clever interpretations buried in dense lease language, Jason breaks down how even “airtight” deals can leak dollars—and how KBA's proprietary AI tools are tightening the screws. Plus, Jack and Jason dive into how AI is transforming unstructured financial data into actionable dashboards, the future of automation in lease management, and why “public defender for tenants” might be the perfect job description.

Government Accountability Office auditors are examining the “digital footprint” left by DOGE in Treasury Department, Social Security Administration and Office of Personnel Management IT systems, the watchdog's leader told Congress on Tuesday. Testifying before the Senate Appropriations Legislative Branch Subcommittee, Comptroller General Gene Dodaro said GAO auditors are looking into what data was accessed by the Elon Musk underlings during their forays into agency IT systems, and determining if any changes were made. “We're looking at the digital footprint within each of these major systems across government,” Dodaro said, naming OPM, SSA and Treasury specifically. “So we'll have a better idea about what impact DOGE's access has had on the data systems, and whether there's been any information input into the system or taken out of the system.” The General Services Administration unveiled a new initiative Tuesday that it says is aimed at helping agencies gain easier access to IT tools and shifting how the federal government approaches procurement. The OneGov Strategy is meant to modernize how the government buys goods and services and calls for more direct engagement with Original Equipment Manufacturers. The GSA said in a press release that OEMs “will benefit from a more direct and predictable engagement model.” Taxpayers, meanwhile, will benefit from a “smarter, more secure federal IT enterprise” under the strategy, the GSA said. While agencies have, in the past, bought software through resellers, the GSA believes this approach prioritizes direct relationships for enhanced outcomes. Stephen Ehikian, the agency's acting administrator, called the OneGov Strategy “a bold step forward” in GSA's “mission to be responsible stewards of taxpayer dollars. It's about acting as one — aligning to our scale, standards and security to meet the needs of today's government while prepping for the future.” The Daily Scoop Podcast is available every Monday-Friday afternoon.

Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) audits of hospitals play a key role in ensuring compliance with 340B rules and regulations. In this episode, Dave Lacknauth, executive director of pharmacy services at Broward Health in Fort. Lauderdale, Fla., joins us to discuss the importance of taking a proactive, comprehensive approach to audit readiness with the goal of ensuring clean audit results. Compliance protects 340B accessBeing prepared for HRSA audits serves a crucial function that ultimately benefits the patients whom hospitals serve, Lacknauth explains. Maintaining the integrity of 340B means protecting access to 340B savings that hospitals can invest in crucial care for community members that need it. Continuous audit readinessLacknauth discusses how Broward Health maintains audit readiness by conducting internal audits, bringing in external consultants, and identifying areas of opportunity for improvement. A robust system of internal reviews means that when HRSA comes knocking, Broward Health is already prepared. This was evident after a recent audit of one of the system's hospitals that resulted in zero recommendations for improvement.Organization, resources, transparency are keyPreparing for audits requires a health system to invest time and resources, but Lacknauth stresses that these investments pay off. Engaging a comprehensive team from various departments in the audit readiness process allows for a health system to have the appropriate level of responsiveness and transparency during a HRSA audit.Resources:Nebraska Is 12th State To Enact Contract Pharmacy ProtectionsIdaho Becomes Fourth State To Mandate 340B Reports From Hospitals

Subscriber-only episodeEver wondered where your workday really goes? That nagging feeling that time is slipping away despite your busy schedule might be more than just a feeling. Through a revealing time audit using tracking software, I discovered the uncomfortable truth about my productivity—I wasn't nearly as focused as I thought. The data showed hours disappearing into social media scrolling, aimless email checking, and other digital distractions that masqueraded as work. This reality check became the catalyst for transforming my entire approach to time management and business productivity.Taking a cue from my teaching background, I developed a structured block scheduling system that revolutionized my workday. By assigning specific tasks to designated time periods—just like a school timetable with classes, breaks, and transitions—I created a framework that eliminated decision fatigue and minimized task-switching. More importantly, I learned to match high-value activities with my peak energy periods, scheduling creative work when my mind is sharpest and administrative tasks when precision matters most.The results speak for themselves. This methodical approach to time management hasn't just improved my productivity—it's given me the clarity and consistency needed to achieve meaningful business goals. I challenge you to examine your own time habits through a similar audit. What patterns might you discover? How could strategic scheduling transform your results? Whether you're struggling with consistency or looking to accelerate your growth, understanding where your time truly goes is the first step toward reclaiming control of your business and your life.
